Our Introductory classes tend to fill up quickly. If a class if full, please register on the “wait list” so that we can e-mail you when a spot opens up. It also helps us determine if there a need for additional class times.
If you are interested in a class but there are no openings, please register on the “wait list”. You will receive an e-mail when a spot opens up or if new practice times are created. Being on the wait list does NOT automatically enroll you when a spot becomes open. Those on the wait list will be offered a chance to enroll ahead of others who are not on the wait list.
